Episode 6. Bariatric Surgery with Mr Ray McHenry

In this episode we have a very interesting conversation with one of Australia’s leading bariatric surgeons, Mr Raymond McHenry, on surgical approaches to weight loss, focussing particularly on the gastric sleeve and roux-en-y gastric bypass operations.

Ray discusses –

· patient selection

· psychological profiling

· choice of operation and outcomes and

· covers some of the early experiences with other bariatric approaches

This conversation provided a very insightful discussion from one of our surgical masters.
